  • The event log does not start error 31: a device attached to the system is not functioning

    I can't get the service to start on my winxp sp3 pc event log. I have tried everything I know:

    • Running sfc/scannow
    • Reset permissions
    • Search for malware and viruses
    • Rebuild the WMI
    • Create a new account
    Nothing seems to work, I think that this is related to an error in hardware/device, but I see no problem in Device Manager. Can someone point me in the right direction to get this resolved? I don't really want to have to format or restore my PC...
    Thank you.

    * EDIT * well it seems to have fixed myself, I used regedit and navigate to the key:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\EventLog

    There, I found some records, I deleted the folder "Powershell" and the "Internet Explorer" folder, and the event log service, and then began. I had uninstalled IE and Powershell but these records were still there so I thought I would like to remove to see if he has made all the difference.
    Thanks for your time!

  • Could not start service windows drivers Foundation-User-Mode Driver Framework on the local computer, error 31: a DVICE attached to the system does not work

    When I go to start the Service for Windows drivers Foundation I get the following error message, cannot start service window drivers Foundation-User-Mode Driver Framework on local computer, error 31: a device attached to the system is not functioning

    I was not able to find an answer in help

    Unless you write your own drivers for XP and using the Windows Driver Foundation Service to help you debug, you can disable the WDF Service.  It will be one less point to start your system and will not not just sitting there working day and night with nothing to do.

    On some systems, if WDF is activated, you can begin to see some errors of svchost.exe like this:

    Application error: the instruction at "0x7c91b21a" referenced memory at "0x00000010". Memory could not be "written".

    The best solution for this problem is: disable the WDF Service.

  • App, opening a file via windows shell commands: "a device attached to the system does not work.

    Hello!

    I hope that someone here will be able to throw some lights on my question, if I post this is the wrong place please let me know because I was directed here (which forum? ). OK, I support and develop custom applications. An older application especially written in Delphi allows users to attached documents (pdf, jpg, txt, etc.) to the records of equipment in a data base. Later users can view these records of equipment and press a button to display the document.

    When the user presses the button to view the document, the application uses the folder variable to save the document to the temporary path and then asks windows via a shell command to open the file. The appeal of Delphi for windows used is the following:

    ShellExecute (GetDesktopWindow, 'open', PChar (TempFile), ",", SW_SHOWNORMAL);

    Normally this process works very well, we have had no problems so far. On a single computer (windows xp pro with Service Pack 3) belonging to a client, instead of opening the file, windows returns the system 31 error and the message ""a device attached to the system is not functioning. ". is displayed.

    * If I navigate to the location where the file is stored on the disk and try to open it, software adobe reader opens the file correctly.

    * I found some suggestions that the file extension is associated properly. PDF associated with Notepad, I changed, and the application could ask windows to open the file very well. Open the file from the location on the work of disc as well. Change the file for adobe and the problem persisted.

    * I reinstalled adobe reader software, but also a previous version of adobe and the problem persisted.

    * The application doesn't have any problem asking other files opened, only those associated with adobe reader on this same machine. The problem does not exist on other machines.

    That about sums up the problem. Any suggestion would be appreciated.

    Thank you

    Louis

    It was determined that the version of adobe reader was at fault.

  • \\HOME-server is not accessible. A device attached to the system does not work.

    I use Windows 7 Professional. My network server is WHS V1.

    I have a shortcut on the desktop to \\HOME-SERVER on my W7 machine.
    All of a sudden it has stopped working.
    I get the message
    \\HOME-server is not accessible. You might not...
    A device attached to the system does not work.

    I found that the command line net view \\HOME-SEVER gives (and by typing this in an address bar of the Explorer does not work)
    31 system error has occurred.
    A device attached to the system does not work.

    And this net view \\HOME-SERVER\Music gives (but in typing this in a browser address bar works!)
    53 system error has occurred.
    The network path was not found.
    However, net view 192.168.1.99 (my server address) correctly list the share on the server names (and entering \\192.168.1.99 in Explorer address bar works).
    I did a system restore until the problem occurred first to rule out any changes to the system.
    The problem occurred again.
    This means that my Sync Center shows none of my synchronization partnerships.
    Can anyone suggest the setting or service that must be corrected to solve system error 31 problem?
    TIA

    Hello

    Sorry, but I don t know what laptop you have (xxx-S203) but I can tell you that DMA if available is standard setting for all Toshiba laptops. On this path, it is not easy to give you a correct answer, but if the reader can't read original CD or DVD I guess there is hardware malfunction and the drive needs to be replaced.

    Hi ld1925,

    • Did you the latest changes on the computer?

    Method 1

    I suggest that you install the updated drivers for the graphics card on the computer by visiting the manufacturer of the card or the computer manufacturer's website and check if it helps.

    If the update of drivers help not then uninstalled computer display card drivers, then reinstall the latest driver update.

    Method 2

    If the previous step fails, then it is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

    I suggest that you put the computer in a clean boot state and check if it helps.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows XP by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.
